<div class="IPBDescription">an advanced menu for sounds</div>Hai,

I havent read through all idea & suggestions but when i saw some topics i didnt see anything famillar. You can delete this if I double post, i'm sry.
EDIT* (Could be done in 3.2?)
Current situation:
A couple sounds that can be bounded to hotkeys and some more sounds in the menu.
I never use my menu anymore besides co marine upgrades, because it simply takes to long to get to any sound. I bounded some custom to my needs but i dont feel its enaugh.
New situation:
A more CS-like menu which gets you a sound in 2 buttons, which gives the opportunity for more sounds.
There not enaugh keys for covering you and stuff, besides why not a < Cover me > sound, which is more logical to have. Someone walking by a marine building a RT simply doesnt always care for his death or isnt aware of skulk the rt building has heard before. So you give the < Cover me > sound to get his attention.
Some more hud-sounds that could be nice to have:
- Negative
- Need backup
-......
And maybe more typical ns sounds ( cover me , planted bomb in cs )
- OC's dropped need assistance
- RT's dropped ......
- Hive dropped ......

Its a very simple upgrade that can make the game feel more complete.
Youre thoughts and ideas are welcome.

    (trying to be as nice as possible)

    This is not CS - the reason being that the devs didn't want to end up with another CS clone. Go take a read of the top 4 mistakes by mod teams on planethalflife.com

    The thing I DO agree with though, the the addition of commands like OC dropped, RT dropped, Hive Dropped, etc

    These commands could be integrated into the pop up menu, but might cause clutter.

    You don't need sounds. Bind "key" "say ---HIVE DROPPED---" . Or something like that. It's not that hard. Or just use a mic. Noone in CS even uses those sound things; proving they are useless.

    It adds something to it, you can make it totally not connected to CS , those were just examples of a menu that works fast and good. Something I cant say about the the ns menu. Youre mouse gets stuck in it, makes you a easy target. A simple menu with nice sounds is what i'm asking for. And like i said, there not enaugh binds for all sounds like ---HIVE DOPPED-- spammage.

    So my request is a simple sound menu that works quick and good. ( You can then fill it up with more sounds. )
